"We received notification of Russell's violation about two weeks ago and I've appointed a panel to hear his case," said JADCO independent disciplinary panel chairman Kent Pantry.

Russell, who helped West Indies win the 2012 World T20, faces a possible two-year ban from cricket if found guilty.

"There is a process regarding the findings by JADCO. All that will be observed and you will be advised accordingly," the West Indies Cricket Board told Reuters.

Athletes must tell their local anti-doping agency where they will be for at least one hour each day to facilitate drug tests, World Anti-Doping Agency rules state.

If an athlete misses three drug checks within a 12-month period, that counts as a positive test.

Russell, who last month helped Islamabad United win the Pakistan Super league and was named man of the tournament, also plays for the Sydney Thunder in the KFC Big Bash League and Kolkata Knight Riders in the Indian Premier League.

The allrounder was instrumental in the Thunder's run to the BBL|05 title, with the BBL club saying in a statement they are monitoring the situation.

"There is a clear process to go through and we will not be commenting until it is completed."

Russell also chipped in with the bat, scoring 185 runs at a blistering strike rate of 187.
